I am going to buy a War Eagle 542 on Monday. I'm going to use my 2002 Merc 25 2 stroke tiller on the boat (does not have power tilt and trim) . Please let me know what you think...I want to get a stainless prop for my Merc 25...I am open to a mini jack plate as well if it will improve performance. Should I go ahead and let the guys at the boat shop drill my new boat for the Merc 25 or wait and see how it runs with the motor just mounted with the transom temporarily and then decide on a jack plate and prop? What offset do I need for the mini jacker? Any suggestions on brand? Also, If I install my motor on the boat will the holes match up to a jack plate? OR am I just in overkill mode...do I need to just shut up, mount the motor and go fishing! Ha Ha!
